Win a Case of Balance Water for Women!

Those of you that know me know how much I hate drinking water. Absolutely hate it! Water always tastes like liquid metal to me and doesn’t satisfy my thirst at all. Now that I’m pregnant again, I have given it a concerted effort to limit my caffeine intact and drink more water. Recently, I was able to try a new brand of water called Balance. Rob and I love it! It just might help me kick that soda habit…..

Balance Water is the world’s first non-flavored spring water that contains homeopathic flower essences designed to affect emotional well being. Balance uses Australian wildflowers which are particularly interesting and unique in their properties given their diversity, beauty, remote growing locales and the harsh conditions they typically have to endure. These flower essences help stress, tension, sleep patterns, anxiety, digestion, etc. The wildflowers used are from wild harvest (not farmed). Balance products do not contain any flavors, colors, preservatives, artificial additives, sugar or calories. Balance Water is available for Women, Mind, Travel, & Children.

Best of all, the water tastes GREAT! No metal taste!

Balance is a product of the US with the water source from the Alpine Springs in the Catskills Mountains in New York. Balance Water imports the flower essences concentrate from Australia. Balance Water keeps the business at home by bottling their product here in the US with all labor, caps, bottles, water and labels produced locally. They use completely biodegradable bottles, partially recycled bottles, vegetable dye inks for the labels, non-solvent based glue for the labels. Balance Water is environmentally responsible by minimizing their carbon footprint and by using natural products wherever possible.

Balance Water prices are comparable to the more well known premium bottled waters.The 16.9fl oz (500mL) recommended retail price is $1.69; 33.8fl oz (1L) is $2.29; and 13.5fl oz (400mL) Children’s bottle is $1.49 (6-pack is $8.29).Balance Water is available at Whole foods Market, The Food Emporium, Mother Earth and Toys ‘r Us (Balance for Children). It is also available for home delivery.

Win It: Martin Chalk, owner of Balance Water, is offering 2 of my readers a case of Balance Water for Women so they can taste and feel the difference for themselves!

Win a $25 Gift Certificate to Layers Clothing!

Are you still looking for that perfect swimsuit for this summer? If so, look no further! Layers Clothing has a wonderful line of swimsuits that you’re sure to love. I just got the Maisie swimsuit by Layers Clothing and I absolutely love it.

The tankini helps hide that “left over” baby bump I’ve been sporting around for almost two years…sigh. I found that their swimsuits are well made and stand up well to both salt and chlorine. They feature adjustable straps and support bra liners (a must have). Another feature that I love is that you can order a different size top vs. bottom. Layers swimsuits are available in several cute, retro designs and plus sizes. They also carry outerwear collections and body slimmer’s.

Win It: Layers Clothing is giving one of my followers a $25 gift certificate! Just go to Layers Clothing and tell me which swimsuit you would like to have!

Go Picnic

So I’m a busy working mom on the go. A lot of times I only have time to eat grab and go snacks. Not the healthiest way to eat but at least I’m eating right? I recently was able to try out the Go Picnic ready-to-eat meals from Go Picnic.

These prepackaged meal kits come in a slim profile box that fits easily in your bag and they require no refrigeration or prep. Each box contains utensils, towelette, and a temporary tattoo for the kiddos. Go Picnic meals are available in over 20 varieties for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or snack! I think the best part is that the meals are not only convenient but they are healthy too! They have menus that meet vegetarian, gluten free, kosher, halal dietary requirements. The meals contain no trans fats, high fructose corn syrup, added MSG, peanut or tree nut, added flavors or colors. I know what you’re thinking….”they must taste disgusting.” Take it from this junk food junkie, they actually taste great. I love the gummi bears and snickerdoodle cookies that come in the meal.

The meals are reasonably priced starting at $3.99/box which is comparable to the Lunchable’s brand. A steal if you ask me because it would cost more than that to eat fast food. Go Picnic also has a fundraising campaign you can do to raise money for your company, event, organization, group, etc. Summer is almost here and this product would be great for travel, camping, trips between summer activities so stop by Go Picnic and order your Go Picnic ready-to-eat meal today!

Win the Pocket Snails Potty Adventure on DVD

Mahayla is 22 months old now and we have been intermittently trying this potty training thing. We figured when she starting pulling the “poop” out of her diaper and handing to the teacher, it was time to start. Some days she interested and others she’s not. We’ve tried several methods including the timer method, which resulted in her having a full blown mental break down about the 5^th time the timer went off, and of course bribery. Nothing has really worked well for her until she watched the Pocket Snails Potty Adventure!

The Pocket Snails Potty Adventure! Is an interactive animated story with 3 pocket snail friends, Gordon, Dale, and Buttons, that help guide your little one through the steps of potty training. The DVD includes a “Potty Steps Map” that illustrates the potty training steps that you can use to follow along with the video or independently. The movie utilizes vibrant colors, repetition, and songs to help teach how use the potty. Mahayla loves her new movie! She dances around during the songs and wants to sit on her “potty” when the movie is done. She actually went “pee-pee” in the potty right after her first viewing of the movie! Unfortunately, we can only get her to go after watching the video and I obviously can’t play the video continuously everyday. So we’ll have to figure that out.

The Pocket Snails is a wonderful educational series that provides a stepping stone in our children’s development and they get to have fun while learning! The Pocket Snails have won over 25 national awards including The Toy Man Award of Excellence and the NAPPA Honors Award.

Go by Pocket Snails and check out their educational series. Leave me a comment about your potty training adventures!

Win It: My Friends at Pocket Snails are offering 2 of my followers The Pocket Snails Potty Adventure DVD for themselves!

I wanted to take a moment and let everyone know about a company called White Sands. Whites Sands is an innovative leader in hair care. Their products provide a unique blend of botanicals to help protect and enhance color and offer a heat shield to protect our hair from UV damage and thermal stress. Best of all, for all of you Florida girls out there, they provide ultimate moisture balance and humidity protection. No more “frizzy hair” days! Whites Sands offers a wide range of hair care products, styling tools and accessories. All of their products are reasonably priced and available for purchase on-line or at area salons.

I recently was able to sample their Phase 1 Nourishing Shampoo for Blondes and Brunettes and the Phase 1 Corrective Conditioner for Blondes and Brunettes. This product helps “secure color and locks in a balanced, self-adjusting moisture with a weightless feel before the clear micro-shield seals the hair.” I have been using the product for almost 3 weeks now and my hair feels softer and full of more color…and I don’t even dye my hair! The only thing I wished is that it had a better smell. The product smells a bit too “chemically” for my tastes, but overall is a great product.

Head over to White Sands and give one of their collections a try!

Our daughter, Mahayla, is almost two and is ready for her “Big Girl” room. Her current room is rather unisex in nature, painted in two-tone blue and green with cartoonish fish swimming around the room. This décor really doesn’t fit the girly-girly personality that is emerging from my toddler so we felt it was time to “grow up”. My original plan was to leave the room the same color, replace the border, and use my Sticky words vinyl lettering to redecorate and bam we’re done! Well, the higher power made new plans for us while we we’re busy making different plans….a new baby. Yes, I said it….we’re pregnant again! So now, Mahayla is getting a new room all together. We turned our extra bedroom into a Tinkerbell room complete with fairy dust! My favorite part of the room is my vinyl lettering from Sticky Words, “All it takes is faith and trust and a little bit of fairy dust.” We made this the center piece of the room above her bed.

Sticky Words has a wide variety of pre-designed vinyl cut-out available in any size or color! Custom designs are also available. They have several categories to choose from like nursery, living room, religious, and etc. The website is easy to navigate and professionally set up. My order arrived within a few days complete with instructions. Make sure you read the instructions! We did find that hanging the design was a two-person job. We did encounter some difficulty because our walls are textured, so it took a bit more rubbing to get the lettering to stick. I also found that if you pull the backing off at a 45 degree angle it works better. The installation was otherwise simple and looked marvelous when we were done. We completed the look with Tinkerbell appliqués on either side and embellished with rhinestones to make our fairy dust.

I love Sticky Words and they have such a variety of designs available. The teaching hospital I’m working for will be opening its Cancer Hospital in the fall. I love these designs so much that I’ve talked to our manager and the Art’s in Medicine department to see if we could install some of inspirational designs in each of our 24 rooms on the Bone Marrow Transplant Unit. Our patients stay an average of 30-45 days depending on the type of transplant they receive. I think it would be wonderful if they could wake up every day and see some inspiring word looking back them!

Head over to Sticky Words and let me know which design you would want!

Win It!

The wonderful owner of Sticky Words is offering one of my readers a pre-designed phrase of their choice in any size or color! (Excludes customs)
